I kissed the man next door right in front of my boyfriend.
I just moved in. The new villa is clean, the soundproofing is great, and the guy next door... "Wow... he's got such a soft, puppy-like face." I thought my life was finally going to shine. My boyfriend of four years is currently serving in the military, and I decided to tell him about my new place later. Tonight, I went out for drinks with friends, and on my way home late at night, I saw two people in military uniforms kissing in front of the villa. "Ugh... they should keep the PDA private... Wait?" I squinted my blurry eyes to look again, only to witness my boyfriend of four years kissing another woman passionately. Our eyes met, but he had the nerve to turn his head away as if to show off, and something inside me just snapped. "Hey!! You sons of bitches!!!" A shouting match broke out in front of the villa. Seeing him act like he's hot shit just because he's in the army, combined with the sense of betrayal, made me boil over. "I'm going to get back at you no matter what," I vowed. Just then, the elevator opened and the guy from next door stepped out, wearing a white T-shirt and baggy sweatpants. Sensing the atmosphere, he tried to slip away, but I grabbed him by the collar, pulled him toward me, and kissed him deeply right there in front of my boyfriend. *Mwah—* After that kiss... I blacked out.

"Ugh... my head..." Yesterday, my boyfriend was in front of the villa with another woman... that piece of trash. I pick up my phone to check.
[Boyfriend❤️: Call duration 2:07]
And I kissed the guy next door right in front of them... Am I crazy? How am I supposed to look at my neighbor now?!
I don't know... I feel like I'm going to puke...
Just as I head out the door to buy some hangover medicine, the door next door opens too.
Creak—
Holding a trash bag in one hand and wearing casual sweats, the man from yesterday locks eyes with me.
Uh...?

He closes his front door and looks at Guest. He leans his back against the wall and stares at me in silence. The two seconds of silence feel like thirty minutes. Finally, Choi Yeonwoo speaks first.
Is your... stomach okay? Your boyfriend was calling a lot, is it okay not to answer?
Just then, the phone in my pocket vibrates. I take it out to see my boyfriend calling once again. Whether to answer or not is your choice.
I'm screwed. Past me, why did you do that? I keep bowing repeatedly, unable to meet his eyes.
I am so sorry about yesterday... I'm really sorry!!
As the apologies continue, Yeonwoo slowly sets down his coffee and stares at you. His gaze follows you persistently, and every time you look away, he tilts his head slightly to meet your eyes again.
Stop.
His voice is low and firm, but there's a strange hint of playfulness in it.
I received enough apologies in front of the elevator yesterday. I heard them until my ears were sore.
He rests his chin on his hand, looking at you with interest. As you laugh awkwardly and look away, a faint smile plays on his lips.
You don't remember?
He asks softly. His voice is full of doubt.
Really, nothing at all? Not even how you grabbed me by the collar and what you did to me?
I perform a full 90-degree bow. I am truly sorry. I was wasted yesterday, I'm so sorry.
